Hopefully, John will not be leaving the scene. He did such a wonderful job with mormonstories. He was quickly becoming an icon of Mormon culture. Whoever takes his place will have a huge climb uphill to match John and his skills.
John is mormonstories.
I intend to lay a foundation that will revolutionize the whole world. Joseph Smith We are “to feed the hungry, to clothe the naked, to provide for the widow, to dry up the tear of the orphan, to comfort the afflicted, whether in this church, or in any other, or in no church at all…” Joseph Smith

John is mormonstories.
An icon of Mormon culture???
Perhaps for the closet doubters or the completely inactive LDS member board dwellers like yourself.
The majority of active Mormons have never heard of mormonstories, Fair, Ma&D, MDB, RfM, or FARMS.

John is executive director of Sunstone in addition to being in charge of Mormon Stories. I imagine that's a lot of work, especially with Sunstone now putting on something like 4 sympsiums a year.
I hope there is a non-apologetic type who can step up to the plate and fill this worthwhile service to the Mormon community. It not only helps with members immediate needs but provides a source of future history if well archived and preserved.

You may have a point. Perhaps I should have said: He is an icon of Mormon internet culture. That would have been more exact. John will perhaps be missed from Mormonstories but all will depend on who replaces him. They will have some big shoes to fill.

Any bets on how badly the Brethren hate John Dehlin's guts?
"Finally, for your rather strange idea that miracles are somehow linked to the amount of gay sexual gratification that is taking place would require that primitive Christianity was launched by gay sex, would it not?"
